J 24086-C Piston Pin Remover/Installer Set
Important:
• Disassembly of the piston, press-fit design piston pin, and connecting rod may create scoring or damage to the piston pin and piston pin bore. If the piston, pin, and connecting rod have been disassembled, replace the components as an assembly. • If reusing the piston and connecting rod assembly, install the assembly to the original cylinder and corresponding crankshaft journal. • The assembly procedure, as shown, is to be used for diagnostic purposes only.
Caution: Avoid contact with HOT components. Wear safety glasses and protective gloves to avoid personal injury.
Notice: Applying excessive heat to the connecting rod may damage or distort the rod. Rod temperature SHOULD NOT exceed 315°C (600°F). At this temperature the end of the connecting rod will turn a straw color upon visual inspection.
Notice: After the installer hub bottoms on the support assembly, do not exceed 35 000 kPa (5,000 psi) pressure, this could cause damage to the tool.
When properly installed, the piston pin (3) should be centered in the connecting rod (2).
Important: When installing piston rings, use a ring expander plier type tool. Do not roll the rings into the grooves of the piston. Use caution and care to expand the rings only slightly larger than the outside diameter (OD) of the piston.
